Specification of Letters Patent.

Patented July 2s, 1908.-

Applieation led September 23, 1907.` Serial No. 394;,236.

To all whom, it may concern:

Be it known that I, CHARLLE F. STAERE, a

vcitizen of the United States, residing at Portland, in the county of Multnomah and Stateof Oregon, have invented a new and useful Inspirator, of which the following is a specication.

. My invention is an instrument for the pur-4 Similar figures referto similar parts in different views.

1 is thesuction end, or the end, through flhiich the material comes that is to bev han- 2 is a double screwed coupling which on its outer end has a lscrew `thread for the purpose of fastening it to the main conducting line of pipe, and which when so screwed, is allowed no lateral motion, but is held rigidly in place.

3 is a packing nut having a hole in it in one end through which 8 passes and on the other end of which is a thread which engages with thread on endof 2. q the packing is taken .,up, -the packing nut may be moved closer to 2 by turning it on. Thus making a tight'joint at all times and ermitting no escapement of the material to he handled from the mainline. 6 is another -packing nut; it is screwed `to 7, having a hole in the end through which 8 also passes.

-8 is a nozzle connection having a turnedend which ldes into enlarged end ofl 2, and

- a thread in its central partat 12.-

As the resilience of` y 4 Witnesses:

5 is a hand wheelthat is,fastened to 8, andv is forthe. purpose of adjusting 8 laterally, for when 8 is rotated, the Ascrew 12 will cause 8 'to move, thus increasing or diminishing the lopening at 13 between 8 and 9. r

7 is the pressure inlet tee, with the inle lopening'at 11, through vthis comes the operating liquid or as, and it entirely surrounds 8 and jets out t rough the opening 13.

f 9 is the dischageend coupling, which is also screwed into the main pipe line at 14. It is. screwed into 7 atI 15.

16 and 17 are `turned to the same taper so that the outlet flow from 7 may, if so desired,

be completely stopped by closing opening 13, or it may be adjusted so that the best results will be obtained when discharging from 10 under different pressures, or the suction is operating under variable conditions'.

The fhereindescribed inspirator comprising, in combination, a suction coupling having'screw threadsat one end for attachment to a supply pipe, the other end havingl a .smooth interior and screw threaded exterior, a nozzle having one end cylindrical for cooperation with said smooth portion of the coupling, the other end being conical, and' being exteriorly screw threaded at its intermediate portion, a gland surrounding the' necting said tee with the main pipe line, said means havingan interior surface mating the conical end of the nozzle, and means for adjusting the nozzle longitudinally of the tee.
